Thank You, Global Gathering Volunteers!

Since the first Church of God camp meetings, with the raising of tents, preparing meals, donating food, preaching, singing, and teaching, volunteerism has been exemplified. Decades of memories accumulate and traditions continue as people today step up to volunteer in widened and changing needs of programs, logistics, and technology. The central focus remains—ministering to people.

The months and years of planning by the Global Gathering Program Committee culminated in five days of activity brimming with opportunities for all ages. From mingling among the people or giving information under the umbrellas, to driving the shuttles, volunteers are vital to people, plans, and programs.

Volunteers were present all over the grounds and in every meeting and worship venue and connector fellowship opportunities for the Global Forum and the Global Gathering, to provide a warm greeting, offer assistance, directions, and information.

Volunteers provided a welcome at the Global Expo and Marketplace, which drew hundreds of conventioneers and provided exciting and informative adventure as they wandered and explored the Church of God around the globe.
